Abstract

A common malignant tumor that poses a major threat to women’s health is breast cancer (BC). BC is mostly caused by aberrant cells in the breast and is primarily influenced by hormone levels, environmental factors, and genetics. Currently, the tumor’s features and stage determine the course of treatment for patients who have been diagnosed. Surgical resection, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, and targeted therapy are often used forms of treatment. Because of its few side effects and excellent treatment efficacy, targeted therapy has gained popularity in the fight against cancer. The goal of this article is to investigate potential future development trends in the field of BC by focusing on the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and therapy of the disease. This paper indicates that while new objectives for BC have made considerable strides in recent years, The biggest obstacles to a cure for BC are metastasis and recurrence, making the prognosis still quite difficult. To increase the survival rates of BC patients, more research and the creation of novel treatments are therefore essential.
